A new educational video significantly improved knowledge and attitudes for women with overactive bladder considering sacral nerve stimulation (SNS). The patient-developed video enhanced understanding of SNS therapy compared to manufacturer materials.

Area of Science:

Urology
Patient Education
Medical Device Technology

Background:

Overactive bladder (OAB) affects many women, with sacral nerve stimulation (SNS) as a treatment option.
Patients considering SNS often have significant information gaps and specific needs.
Existing educational materials may not fully address patient-centered concerns.

Purpose of the Study:

To develop and evaluate a patient-centered educational video for women considering sacral nerve stimulation (SNS) for overactive bladder (OAB).
To identify and address key knowledge gaps and information needs specific to patients undergoing SNS therapy.

Main Methods:

Five focus groups with women with OAB identified patient needs and preferences for an SNS educational video.
A 16-minute video was created incorporating patient input, animation, and literature.

Keywords:

A randomized trial compared the patient-developed video against a manufacturer's video in 40 women with OAB.

Main Results:

Ten crucial domains for patient understanding of SNS were identified.
The patient-developed video group showed significantly greater improvement in knowledge scores (76.6 vs 24.2 points, p <0.0001).
Women viewing the patient-developed video reported more positive attitudes and expectations regarding SNS therapy.

Conclusions:

Women with OAB considering sacral nerve stimulation have distinct information requirements.
The developed patient-centered video effectively improved short-term patient knowledge about sacral nerve stimulation.
This approach highlights the value of tailored educational tools in managing patient expectations for medical treatments.
